There are few states that have achieved the rapid and successful change in so short a space of time as has Dubai. From palm-frond huts to sumptuous hotels, from remote oases to man-made islands, and from camel caravans to the ultimate in today’s high technology, this desert outpost has turned itself into one of the world’s most dynamic and cosmopolitan centres of trade, commerce and tourism. This book tells the story of this remarkable transformation, accompanied by sumptuous photography.
